the.blog.made.me.do.it.vol4


The long overdue fourth installment in the ‘Blog Made Me Do It‘ series: Master & Commander, was formulated by scientists to rock boats and make waves, all the while throwing passengers overboard. Tested by infants and hoodrats alike, it’s been approved to knock blocks, rattle cribs, flip chips, and turn tricks. Culled from the digital depths; the sprawling, essential 41-track set brings together hints of trance with street sounds to create lawlessly commanding rumble muzik. In other words: it’ll change your life. Featuring unreleased productions by Timbaland, Araab Muzik, Jahlil Beats, Bei Maejor, Polow da Don, Tricky Stewart, Los da Mystro, Duke Da God, and Boi-1da, with appearances by Jazmine Sullivan, Slim Thug, Vado, Ace Hood, Styles P, Young Jeezy, Keri Hilson and newbies: Tory Lanez, Meek Mill, Kendre, ZayBucks, Britney Mac, Six, The Dean’s List, and more. Warning: not approved for chumps, pregnant women, non-believers, and those with epilepsy. Remember where you it heard it first & bang on MF. (click the link below to download the .zip file)

Song of the Day: “My Love Is The Shh” – Something For The People

Phone sex is still the shit, I mean shh. This one goes out to my boy, Martin at Mykromag, who reminded me how obsessed I was with this song growing up. Oh, and Girl 6 ’cause I still haven’t seen it since my mom won’t let me…

beautiful.lie


Song of the Day: “Beautiful Lie” – Ryan Leslie

The perfect song to phase out Paris Fashion Week …

eve.o.lution


Dear E-V-E,
Seeing you at The Blonds show got me thinking…
When will you return to your Ruff Ryding ways?
You know, like when you used to ryde on the front of motorbikes that hovered above ground, when you’d wear cowboy hats in ballrooms, and flash your chain and chest tats. I know you’ve eve-o-lved but frankly, I don’t like the fact that you haven’t even been wearing your eyebrow ring lately. I’ve attached specific sounds I’d like to hear from you along with images of your former self below to jog your memory. See you soon,
xMH

Song of the Day, Pt. I: “What Y’all Want” – Eve (Feat. Nokio)

Song of the Day, Pt. 2: “Got It All” – Eve (Feat. Jadakiss)


want.u.back

Song of the Day: “I Want You Back” – Mel B. (Feat. Missy Elliot)


Scary Spice looked and sounded exactly like how Surge tasted,
especially in this video featuring Misdemeanor,
Mmmmm. How I miss thee.


[Warning: This could just be the best video of all time.
And it's not just because there's a metallic cowboy hat.]

VPL by Victoria Bartlett / Fall 2011 / New York Fashion Week

Found this banner somewhere on the internets and had to share. I thought I was the only one who got suspiciously hungry for McNuggets when I listened to Keith Sweat? Guess it’s a common thing. Telling from the banner, the creeper’s been touting McD’s subliminally for a good while… until now.

 Song of the Day: “Twisted” – Keith Sweat


…Y’know, y’know you want my nuggets baby…

Song of the Day: “MuNY” – Nicki Minaj

Song of the Day: “Brown Sugar” – Faith Evans (Feat. Mos Def)

You gotta have faith.

jamie.xx

Song of the Day: “Far Nearer” – Jamie XX

It’s not often you witness hipster runoff on the blog, but, I must admit: this Jamie XX track, which dons steel drums and smashed-up, semi-unrecognizable vocal loops by Janet Jackson (yeah, you read it right – Janet Jackson!), is too good to let be… have a listen.

t.l.c


Song of the Day: “Switch” – TLC
Hope your halloween was as hilarious as minez

whip.it.gud

Song of the Day: “Whip My Hair” – Willow Smith

My editor at The FADER put it best… Willow’s not actually 9, she’s instead an un-aged 35 year old preserved by Scientology. It’s obviously the reason she chose to revamp the 80′s Devo classic, “Whip It.” It’s a total nod to her generation.

Song of the Day: “All These…” – Sterling Simms (Feat. Kid Ink)

Whatta you get when you cross an age-old Wizard of Oz chant (The flying monkeys’ Ohh wee ohh, ohh, ohhh) and an R&B singer with a similar last name to a certain computer game? Sterling Simms’ latest single listens like this century’s very own ringtone-ready, Gregorian fight song.
